About the dataset

The CEC of Belarus does not publish data on polling stations. On the website of this organisation only aggregate values by regions were published. Such data is not suitable for identifying statistical anomalies in the data. That is why an international group of volunteers implemented a unique project: they digitised that part of the protocols of election commissions, the photos of which were posted in the public domain by observers from polling stations. The work lasted more than one day, so our set contains data as of 11.08.2020. Later, a dataset as of 26.10.2020 was added. The dataset also includes incomplete official data from the CEC of Belarus.

Verification of the dataset with the source:	On verification: no verification with the official totals was carried out due to the specificity of the origin of the dataset and its inherent incompleteness. Only selective verification with copies of protocols published on the Web is possible. There is no need to verify the parsing with the source, as the volunteers provided the data in machine-readable form.
